چکیده
We report the discovery of resolved magnetically split lines in two chemically peculiar stars, the SrEuCr star HD 92499 and the Bp SiCr star HD 157751. From FEROS spectra, we have measured a mean magnetic field modulus of 8.5 kG for HD 92499 and a mean magnetic field modulus of 6.6 kG for HD 157751. Both stars have small projected rotational velocities: v sin i = 3.0 km s −1 and 8.5 km s −1 , respectively. Our preliminary abundance analysis reveals ionisation imbalance of rare earths in HD 92499 indicating the abundance pattern typical of rapidly oscillating Ap stars. Cr and Fe are found strongly overabundant in HD 157751.

Discovery of 17 new sharp - lined Ap stars with magnetically resolved lines ⋆
Chemically peculiar A stars (Ap) are extreme examples of the interaction of atomic element diffusion processes with magnetic fields in stellar atmospheres. The rapidly oscillating Ap stars provide a means for studying these processes in 3D and are at the same time important for studying the pulsation excitation mechanism in A stars. As part of the first comprehensive, uniform, high resolution s...
متن کاملMagnesium abundance in main sequence B-type and magnetic chemically peculiar stars
The abundance of magnesium for a sample of 19 main sequence B-type and 41 magnetic chemically peculiar stars has been derived by spectrum synthesis analysis of the Mgii 448.1 nm line under the LTE assumption. The logarithm of the average Mg abundance for the main sequence stars is log (N(Mgii)/N(Tot)) =−4.28±0.19. Comparing magnetic chemically peculiar (Cp) and main sequence stars with equal ef...
متن کاملA spectroscopic study of some suspected chemically peculiar stars
Time-resolved spectra in the 410 700 nm range have been obtained to investigate 10 stars which are classified as suspected chemically peculiar stars in The General Catalogue of Ap and Am stars by Renson et al. (1991) or in the latest literature. Among the studied stars, HD20629 presents metal abundances which are significantly different from main sequence star values and it should be classified...
متن کاملHelium in Chemically Peculiar Stars
For the purpose of deriving the helium abundances in chemically peculiar stars, the importance of assuming a correct helium abundance has been investigated for determining the effective temperature and gravity of main sequence B-type stars, making full use of the present capability of reproducing their helium lines. Even if the flux distribution of main sequence B-type stars appears to depend o...
متن کاملChemically peculiar stars in the field of NGC 2244 ?
Low-resolution long-slit spectra of reference stars, including MKK standard stars and well-known chemically peculiar stars, are used to develop a spectroscopic method for the detection of the 5200 Å flux depression in CP stars. This new method is shown to be as sensitive a detection tool as the photometrical techniques, and provides a higher resolution view of the excess blocking. Application t...
